    net: Avoid overwriting valid skb->napi_id · 78e57f15

    This will be useful to allow busy poll for tunneled traffic. In case of
    busy poll for sessions over tunnels, the underlying physical device's
    queues need to be polled.
    
    Tunnels schedule NAPI either via netif_rx() for backlog queue or
    schedule the gro_cell_poll(). netif_rx() propagates the valid skb->napi_id
    to the socket. OTOH, gro_cell_poll() stamps the skb->napi_id again by
    calling skb_mark_napi_id() with the tunnel NAPI which is not a busy poll
    candidate. This was preventing tunneled traffic to use busy poll. A valid
    NAPI ID in the skb indicates it was already marked for busy poll by a
    NAPI driver and hence needs to be copied into the socket.
